At the Disney+ 'Polaris' creators talk held at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in Yongsan, Seoul on the 20th, writer Jeong Seo-kyung said, `The male protagonist who protects female politicians under threat of terrorism should be handsome.'
On this day, Kim Hee-won, Heo Myung-haeng, and Seo Jeong-kyung, as well as Kim Hee-won, director Heo Myeong-haeng, and art director Kim Byung-han, and VFX supervisor Hong Jung-ho attended the talk to discuss in-depth stories related to the work. In addition, Carol Choy, the Walt Disney Company's Asia-Pacific original content production director, attended and shone.
The Disney+ original series 'Polaris' tells the story of Moon Joo (Jeon Ji-hyun), who has built an international reputation as a U.N. ambassador, facing a huge truth threatening the Korean Peninsula with unidentified special agent San-ho (Kang Dong-won), who has to protect her, as she pursues the background of the presidential candidate shooting.
In particular, it has received hot attention even before its release due to its unique casting lineup such as Jun Ji-hyun and Kang Dong-won, as well as the meeting of the best creators. In particular, solid and delicate stories and spectacular actions, completed by well-made producers such as 'Queen of Tears', 'Vincenzo'Vincenzo' Director Kim Hee-won and 'The Outlaws' Director Heo Myung-haeng, 'Decision to Break Up' and 'Little Ashes' Writer Jeong Moon-kyung, will capture the world.
Writer Shim Jung-kyung said that the beginning of 'Polaris' was after the end of 'Little Aids'. When I asked director Kim Hee-won what he wanted to talk about, he said he wanted a melodrama with a powerful woman. He said he was curious about the melodrama of such a woman, but I was worried because I was not confident in anything powerful and could not do a melodrama. However, I decided to write the script thinking that it would be a room escape game where you can't leave your room if you don't write such a work."
As for the work, the story begins with the setting of the female protagonist as a female politician threatened by terrorism, and the person who protects him is handsome. For the international scale, it is based on global terrorism. Since it is a divided country in Korea, it was planned as a Korean genre rather than a traditional intelligence of the United States or Europe. It deals with contemporary issues, not outdated ideologies"
The Disney+ original series 'Polaris' will release three episodes on September 10 (Wednesday) and two episodes every week starting September 17 (Wednesday).
